This organisation has been running for more than 20 years, and quite recently became a registered charity. It operates a transport service in several villages in around the Burghfield and Mortimer area of West Berkshire. The area in which it operates is rural, and has limited public transport. The service benefits 95 older people currently, ensuring they are able to go shopping, attend medical appointments, participate in social trips, or just have the opportunity to get out regularly and meet friends.

With local authority cuts, the Handybus service is no longer to receive Council support with the lease or general running costs of its minibus. It is instead aiming to preserve the service with the help of the local community. The Allen Lane Foundation is contributing £1,500 towards these efforts. Funding aims to reduce the isolation of older people, increase their independence, and promote greater engagement within the local community.
